LP/Propane gas

A new flexible metal appliance conduit

(½" NPT x ¾" or ½" I.D.) must be design

certified by CSA International. Because

solid pipe restricts moving the range we

recommend using a new flexible conduit

(4 feet length) for each new installation and

additional reinstallations.

Always use the (2) new flare union

adapters ½" NPT x ¾" or ½" I.D.) supplied with the

new flexible appliance conduit for connection of the

range.

Cabinet Construction

1.1

To eliminate the risk of cabinet

burns and fire, do not have cabinet storage space

above the range. If there is cabinet storage space

above range, reduce risk by installing a range hood

that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12,7 cm)

beyond the bottom of the cabinet.

1.2

Countertop Preparation (figure 1)

• The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout

edge of your countertop.

• If you have a

square finish (flat) countertop, no

countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay

directly on edge of countertop.

Formed front-edged countertops must have

molded edge shaved flat 3/4" (1,9 cm) from each

front corner of opening (Figure 1).

Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1,9

cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge

flattened (Figure 1).

If the existing cutout width is greater than

30-1/16" (76,4 cm), reduce the ¾" (1,9 cm)

dimension.

Countertop must be level. Place a level on the

countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If

the countertop is not level, the range will not be

level. The oven must be level for satisfactory baking

results. Cooktop sides of range fit over edges of

countertop opening.

1.3

Gas and Electric Entry Preparation

• The hatched areas are the locations where the gas

line can enter the cabinet (figure 2).

• The recommended position for the gas entry line is

located at 7" (17,8 cm) from the left cabinet wall and

2" (5,1 cm) from the floor (figure 2).

• The shaded area is the location where the electric

outlet can be located (figure 2).

Recommended

position
